The Weller Temtronic/SL-series has been developed for electronic experts. The tip temperature is electronically controlled within a tolerance ±2% to a maximum of 450°C.

With the antistatic properties of the power unit and soldering iron the station meets all current requirements of ESD safety for soldering extremely sensitive components. Potential balance of the soldering tip is effected by a plug at the rear of the station. It can be either hard grounded (mains earth); potential balanced (zero ohm impedance); potential free or soft grounded.
